I recently decided to reinstall RTW and ran into a problem. Whenever I put the first disk in, it says "The handle is invalid." Last time I had RTW installed on the same computer it worked fine, so I have no idea what is causing this.
Have you found a way around this yet? By chance are you having problems installing other games/programs? What you're reporting shouldn't happen unless there's something wrong with Windows. Good luck!
BTW - I'm REALLY interested to know if you have problems installing other programs. Again, good luck!

Eh, I looked online and realized that the way to fix it would take way too long (its seems its a problem with Windows or something) and would put me way over my head so I just downloaded it on my brother's old computer. But yeah, the same thing happened whenever I put my M2TW in as well.
